Consecration to Mary

The Triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart

I am reminded, reviewing the above article by Fr. Tom about consecration and the action of Pope John Paul II in consecration himself and his papcy to Mary.

How powerful God can be in our lives if we open up to his love; all our actions should be a consecration to his Holy Will, just as Mary's "YES, Let it be done to me according to thy word" defines her life and ongoing mission in the world today. As children given a mother like Mary, we are compelled to give our wills back to Jesus.

In fact, this is a reflection of the relationship between God the Father and Jesus, A constant back and forth giviing of self which in fact births the Holy Spirit.

God desires us so much to surrender all to Him, so that we, in turn might have everthing.
